basspatrol Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 I was wondering if anyone can help me figure out how to achieve this look . Thanks in advance http://s249.photobucket.com/user/j79buff/media/100_9870_zps76853416.jpg.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish N Chips Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 Very neat looking. I wonder if you poured like a laminate without letting the lighter color set, to create the swirl bands? Pour the lighter color in first without filling the mold, then immediately pour in your darker contrast color in bands, letting the two colors mix/swirl at each location? Cooler temp would allow more separation of colors. You could even drag a wire or kabob stick through the hot plastic to create designs. I have done some swim baits without letting the first color set completely and gotten a swirl type effect. Just thinking out loud, look forward to seeing what you come up with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassinfool Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 If those are hand pour you could just alternate pouring your different colors of plastic. Other than that, swirling the two colors using a twin injector, hand pouring the belly and then using the twin injector. Not really sure, it would take some playing with for sure.

mark poulson Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 If you have a twin injector, try separating them, so you can push one, then the other, and then repeat. Or do the same thing by alternating single injectors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 Or maybe paint the accent colors into the mold, and then inject the main color. Or use Spikit paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moneyfish Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 Thats Jeff at Fringe Tackle. He is a plastic master. I have had the pleasure of meeting him and watching him pour. Its an art to say the least. Play with the temp when pouring the main color over you accents. You may need to get it a bit hotter to bond them all together. Or you can just buy from Jeff.

basspatrol Posted May 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 Oh, from what i heard Jeff was not pouring worms anymore. I would be definitely buying them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travis Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 (edited) In my opinion most of that stuff has been lost with the modern day lure maker. Search the old posts. Some of it is pouring/injecting and then a little artistry with the airbrush (swimbaits for example) before the final clear plastic dip.

mark poulson Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 Frank still does that stuff. He's definitely an artist! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBuff Posted May 27, 2015 Report Share Posted May 27, 2015 I couldn't agree more with Travis and I'll say it saddens me to no end, in time so much knowledge is going to be lost. At my age with failing eyes & arthritis my clock is running, I hope one of my children will take the torch as they have the gift. Those worms had 6-7 colors that skid took over 6 hours to make, 12 beers and 3 burns I remember them like it was yesterday. There are no recipes written. Thank you for the acknowledgements Jeff Piil Fringe Tackle Co 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basspatrol Posted June 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 Thanks guys. Truly and amazing pattern. I really wish i could find lures like that. Maybe i'll try the 12 beers and 3 burns myself someday lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txsteve Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 I got a very rare chance to pour with Jeff at Fringe tackle yesterday and we did those laminated baits. very labor intense. I don't think you will ever be able to buy those type baits again as most fisherman will not pay for the process required for such a unique bait! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basspatrol Posted June 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 Yeah, I don't doubt about the labor on that. You can see the amount of work put on those worms by looking at it and from all the posts on here. PM me if you guys planning on selling me some . They look too great to be fished with lol.
